UK- SIR PAUL McCARTNEY has rubbished claims JOHN LENNON wanted to have a sexual relationship with him.

Renowned biographer PHILIP NORMAN has accused the late Beatle of having gay fantasies in his controversial new book John Lennon: The Life.

Paul says John never made a move on him – despite them sharing a bed many times while on tour.

Paul says: “I don’t think (the gay claims) are true. John never ever tried anything, I slept with him a million times.

“I’ve seen him on tour roaring drunk, out of his mind in the early days before he sobered up and went to rehab. Roaring drunk and it was always with a female, never once.

“If you’ve got a little gay tendancy and your roaring drunk I’d have caught him once.”

Paul’s comments come hot on the heels of audio footage which was unearthed last week of a voice alleged to be John’s talking about wanting to have sex with his mother JULIA.

The voice can be heard noting: “I was just remembering the time I had my hand on my mother’s t*t in 1 Blomfield Road.

“It was when I was about 14.

“I took a day off school, I was always doing that and hanging out in her house.

“We were lying on the bed and I was thinking ‘I wonder if I should do anything else?’”
